+# Harbor Community Proposal - Eating your own dog food Container Registry
+
+Status: In Progress

+
+# **Proposal:Use Our Own Registry**
+
+# **Abstract**
+
+Use of our Harbor registry to distribute our own container images. We should be the first to adopt our own technology. If we are not willing to utilize our  own application for day-to-date use, don't expect others to do so.
+
+# **Background**
+
+Today, Harbor is the most popular and widely recognized full-fledged container registry on the market. Yet, we are not using our own product ourselfs. Hence the [dogfooding](https://www.projectmanagement.com/articles/217092/eat-your-own-dog-food#_=_) title
+
+# **Proposal**
+
+Deploy and operate Harbor on AWS to distribute containerized images of Harbor.
+
+With support and sponsoring from [8gears](https://container-registry.com/), a 24/7 operation can be accomplished.
+
+# **Non-Goals**
+
+# Rationale
+
+Here are some advantages of using our own Registry.
+
+*Eating your own dog food* doesn't just mean we should use our own product. It also means you should attempt to install it and configure it ourselves.
+
+- Better understanding of the end users' experience.
+- Product's quality would significantly improve.
+- Better documentation
+- Users can see how Harbor can be used in real case scenario
+
+## Costs
+
+The used AWS account is sponsored by AWS. There is currently no cost limited or restriction.
+
+- 80% of the costs will be traffic. Assuming 10 TiB monthly traffic per month would generate ~870-1000 USD (10240 GiB * 0.085USD/GiB)
+- Fixed costs will be around 200-300 USD a month.
+- As a Fallback, Cloudflare R2 can be used instead of AWS S3, where there are no egress fees. However there are no agreements between CNCF and Cloudflare in place..
